Efficacy Study on the Transfer of Adenovirus With the CD40 Ligand Gene (AdcuCD40L) to Patients With Esophageal Carcinoma

NCT00504322 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE1/PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is a randomized, double-blinded assessment of biologic efficacy of AdcuCD40L. The individuals enrolled in this study will be individuals with biopsy proven resectable esophageal carcinoma. The dose of the AdcuCD40L vector (administered endoscopically directly to the tumor) will be the highest tolerable dose (most likely 10\^11 particle units) determined from Weill-IRB protocol #0011004683 dose escalation study.

Conditions

  • Esophageal Neoplasms

Interventions

GENETIC

AdcuCD40L

Using Weill-IRB protocol #0011004683 dose escalation study to determine the highest non-toxic dose of the AdcuCD40L vector, this dose (likely 10\^11 particle units) will be used for all individuals enrolled in this efficacy study. Since there is no evidence that delay of surgery for solid tumors for 15 days following diagnosis alters the prognosis, surgery for removal of the primary tumor will be carried out at either 5 or 15 days after administration of the vector (n= 12/group, including n=6 receiving the AdcuCD40L vector, and n=6 receiving placebo). This will permit assessment of the resulting data (in a randomized, blinded fashion) and the biologic responses to the AdCUCD40L vector over time.

GENETIC

Placebo

The placebo will be the salt water-sugar solution used as a vehicle for the vector.
